Chapter 5091 The Terrifying Nirvanic Charge Pill
As the medicinal droplets battled, all kinds of manifestations appeared. Some ingredients conjured images of their original forms—dragons, drakes, and other ferocious beasts, while others summoned divine abilities, creating an intensity that rivaled a true battlefield.
“Activate your Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone to bind them,” instructed the Earth Cauldron. “The speed of the pill’s condensation relies on these three powers. If they’re insufficient, the ingredients could continue fighting for over ten days. You need to quickly suppress them, or their divinity will rapidly drain.”
“Doesn’t that mean if I hadn’t reclaimed my Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone, I would be unable to refine the Nirvanic Charge Pill?” asked Long Chen.
“You are correct. For you, your Spirit Blood must be the seven-color Supreme Blood—your core blood. At this moment, you must multitask. You have to balance the energies of your Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone and control the intensity of your astral flame. All these factors will affect the quality of the final pill,” warned the Earth Cauldron.
“That’s quite challenging!” Long Chen was taken aback. After all, he almost never used his astral flame or the power of his Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone. Facing this level of coordination, he was not sure about his chances of success.
“Your power wasn’t sufficient before, and I didn’t want you to ignite your astral flame recklessly or use the power of your Three Spirits. To be honest, you still haven’t reached the ideal level for refining the Nirvanic Charge Pill. However, we’re giving it a try. Don’t take this lightly—do your utmost to succeed this time,” advised the Earth Cauldron sternly.
Long Chen nodded and then formed hand seals. His Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone started to quiver, and his chest suddenly glowed, revealing the location of his Supreme Bone. When his seven-color Supreme blood and the slumbering Root Qi within his Dantian awakened, these powers converged on his chest.
A grunt suddenly escaped Long Chen as the three energies raged within his Supreme Bone, causing him a sharp pain. However, the Earth Cauldron assured him that this was normal. His power was very steady, and the merger process was going better than expected.
Once the three energies merged, a whirlpool formed in front of Long Chen’s chest and rapidly grew until it was the size of a fist. At that point, it stopped growing, and three energies swirled within him. After that, Long Chen focused on extracting it from his body.
This was the most difficult thing for Long Chen—having to control energies he wasn’t used to perfectly. Thus, he gritted his teeth in concentration.
Suddenly, the whirlpool quivered, and Long Chen finally discovered the trick to controlling the power of his Three Spirits. Their energies entered the Earth Cauldron.
“Success!” Long Chen’s face lit up with delight. He almost patted himself on the back.
As Long Chen controlled his Three Spirits, he also increased the power of his astral flame. At this point, the only thing to do was to suppress the medicinal droplets through brute force.
However, he soon found that brute force suppression only met with fierce resistance. The medicinal droplets, instead of clashing with each other, started to unite against him, combining their strength to resist his control.
Long Chen tried to suppress them seven times, only to fail every time. On the seventh try, the Earth Cauldron suddenly rumbled, and the power of the Three Spirits finally managed to bring the droplets under control.
Once suppressed, the medicinal droplets started to merge rapidly, as if they were sensing danger from Long Chen’s pressure and were merging together to fight back. As they fused, Long Chen retracted the power of his Three Spirits, feeling light-headed from the immense strain. The rate of exhaustion was so high that he was unable to endure it.
The merger of the medicinal ingredients was the start of the pill condensation. With it underway, the Earth Cauldron took over the process. Long Chen focused solely on maintaining control over his astral flame.
After the span of an incense stick burning, a loud bang echoed from within the Earth Cauldron, and Long Chen opened the lid to find nine medicinal pills inside. Long Chen was delighted at first.
However, when he saw their luster and the murky spots on their surface, his smile turned bitter. “It’s my first time refining low-grade pills in many years.”
Long Chen picked up one of the pills and examined it closely. He had expected the Nirvanic Charge Pill to have star-like patterns and beautiful rings, but instead, it looked more like a lumpy sparrow egg. It was ugly. Long Chen could hardly believe he had refined it.
“To condense the pills on your first attempt far surpasses my expectations,” the Earth Cauldron remarked. “Don’t underestimate this low-grade pill. Despite its appearance, it is still a Nirvanic Charge Pill.”
Suddenly, one of the pills flew out of the Earth Cauldron and shot toward a nearby Moon Tree. As it approached, the tree’s flames flared up to block it.
Normally, a medicinal pill touched by the Moon Flame would be instantly incinerated. However, this pill cut through the flames and exploded close to the Moon Tree’s trunk.
The void around the explosion twisted, and the Moon Tree swayed. Countless branches and leaves fell to the ground, leaving Long Chen stunned by the display of power.
“It’s that explosive?”
This pill was practically on par with one of Guo Ran’s bombs. Wasn’t that crazy? It was only a low-grade pill!
This explosion was definitely capable of blasting apart a five star Doyen. If the pill were of higher grade, the destruction would be catastrophic. Would a Heavenly Chosen be able to block it?
Long Chen suddenly thought of a problem. “Hold it, senior, are you telling me to eat something like this?”
This was a medicinal pill capable of blasting apart a Heavenly Chosen. If he were to consume it, would he really survive?
“This is why you have to wait until you are in the Eternal realm until you condense the Nirvanic Charge Star,” explained the Earth Cauldron. “Don’t underestimate these ugly pills. They are very important. Once you enter the Eternal realm, you will start with eating these low-grade pills and slowly get accustomed to it.”
Long Chen was startled. It seemed that low-grade pills had their advantages. After resting a bit, he continued refining pills with the Earth Cauldron.
The Earth Cauldron let Long Chen continue refining pills, so it could control the power of his Three Spirits and astral flame better. Since the Earth Cauldron recognized Long Chen as its master, it could autonomously extract these powers from him during periods when they weren’t actively refining pills together, which would save him a great deal of time.
Luckily, these powers weren’t things that Long Chen normally used. So, if the Earth Cauldron occasionally used them to refine pills, it wouldn’t affect his combat power.
As time passed, Long Chen and the Earth Cauldron refined a total of seventeen furnaces of pills. By the end of this period, seven days had elapsed. Now, the Earth Cauldron no longer needed Long Chen’s help and could refine the pills with Huo Linger.
On this day, Bai Yingxuan knocked on Long Chen’s door. The gates to the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain were about to open.
